Diffusion and International Institutions

Abstract

International institutions disseminate norms and policies that spread around the globe with profound consequences for global governance. This panel examines the sources, mechanisms, and consequences of such diffusion. Submissions from researchers who carry out empirical research, both qualitative and quantitative, on international institutions—broadly understood and encompassing intergovernmental organizations, NGOs, international regimes, and networks—are invited. Diffusion drivers and effects will be examined on the global, regional, national, and subnational level, considering the many linkages that international institutions have among themselves and other actors—competitive or cooperative in nature.
